Concerns: SaaS and the cloud
 
Illusion of data security
Security and mobility – Laptops The Cost of a Lost Laptop  - Ponemon Institute, April 2009 10,000 laptops lost in airports each week Average cost of a lost or stolen laptop is $49,246 For a healthcare laptop the average is $67,873

Cloud / SaaS Computing Model “The scale and flexibility of cloud computing gives the providers a security edge”
Concerns: SaaS and the cloud ReliaCloud survey version 1.0 | January 13, 2010
Exploring Cloud SLAs: Amazon vs Rackspace – http://www.thewhir.com/blog/Joshua_Beil/020110_Exploring_Cloud_SLAs_Amazon_vs_Rackspace Rackspace Amazon Uptime 100% 99.95% Timespan Current period “ service year” Time-to-resolve 1 hour Not specified Availability 99.9% 99.9%
… .why should we care?
“ ..about 70 percent of our folks are doing things that are entirely cloud-based, or cloud inspired. And by a year from now that will be 90 percent.”    “In three years time, desktops will be irrelevant.”    “The implication that has not been expressed here or in the industry is Mobile First – the principal of everything being developed for mobile first.”
Expected Growth of SaaS TechRadar For Sourcing & Vendor Management Professionals: Software as a Service 2009; Gartner Group;  ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Popularity of SaaS / “the cloud” in healthcare ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Beth Israel Deaconess (BID) "We could have gone with a classic environment - server clusters and building arrays for storage; the problem was that we'd have to build it for the largest load we'd ever need and we had no guarantee anyone would use it." ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Microsoft and Cleveland Clinic ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],“ The ability to monitor weight, blood pressure and activity levels of heart failure patients on a regular basis ensures more timely doctor visits and avoidance of more expensive interventions.”
Image Movement of Montana (IMOM) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],“ Smaller practices and health information exchanges are often using applications that are based in a cloud computing model, or software-as-a-service model. Large hospitals…are increasingly looking to provide a repository for the massive amounts of data that they need to store and access, on an as-needed basis—more of a utility service.”
Reasons for the paradigm shift ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Final thoughts:  what can “the cloud” ultimately do for me? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
